these are a few of my favorite things ...

christmas edition!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
first and foremost: 
nutcrackers.
you either love them or hate them
and i really love them!
someone started a tradition years ago of getting me one every year
and it hasn't stopped :)
.[i have this exact one too!].

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
hanson: snowed in.
all time favorite christmas album!
i even listen to it when it's NOT christmas 
but it gets extra play during the festive holiday!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
starbucks:
holiday cups and seasonal drinks
eg: gingerbread latte and caramel brulee latte
gift cards welcome as christmas gifts! hehe

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

christmas cookies
i mean, they're ALL good
but aren't these the best?!!
they just make me think of christmas!
